00:00:01Previously...
00:00:01You stay single, there's no one out there that can ever measure up
00:00:04because you're scared of letting them in.
00:00:07The experts gave Tyson the perspective he desperately needed.
00:00:12Even just looking into her eyes, I can tell, you know, she's a beautiful person.
00:00:15Leading to an incredible turnaround.
00:00:18I really need to give this a red-hot crack.
00:00:20I've given myself seven days to really give it my 100% all.
00:00:24Family and Friends Week saw protective loved ones...
00:00:27Is Jaya a better version of your ex?
00:00:30...ask some hard-hitting questions.
00:00:32Is that true? Didn't happen?
00:00:34Never happened.
00:00:34How do we know it didn't happen?
00:00:38I am going to be a dad.
00:00:41Congratulations.
00:00:42As some took a massive step forward...
00:00:45I completely understand why he's doing this wonderful thing.
00:00:49You answer this one.
00:00:50So there's nothing you want to tell me?
00:00:52No.
00:00:52Juliet was left frustrated with husband Joel.
00:00:55What I need more from you is...
00:00:59...space.
00:01:00And when Scott refused to delete a photo of his ex-girlfriend...
00:01:05...Gia packed her bags and left the apartments.
00:01:12Tonight...
00:01:12I just want to know if you two have said I love you to each other.
00:01:18Advice from their nearest and dearest...
00:01:20I feel like you've got to let your wall down a little bit.
00:01:24...brings one couple closer than ever before.
00:01:27Coming up the other side, feeling lighter.
00:01:29It's good vibes now, yeah.
00:01:31Go on, give me the low down.
00:01:33Alyssa's friend drops a bombshell about another bride in the experiment.
00:01:38There's been a lot of chat about her trying to dig up dirt on you.
00:01:42This girl, I don't trust her.
00:01:44She has to stay away.
00:01:45Put the shoe on the other foot, Tyson.
00:01:48How would that make you feel as a man?
00:01:50What's Tyson's secret confession that threatens to undo all his hard work?
00:01:55It all just feels very wrong.
00:02:00And then...
00:02:01Look at her, stunning.
00:02:03It's like he's trying to antagonize me.
00:02:06Juliet's mood goes from bad...
00:02:08The eye gaze.
00:02:09Not gonna stand to your devil eyes.
00:02:11To worse.
00:02:12Because it's a performance.
00:02:13It's a metaphor.
00:02:14Because it's a performance.
00:02:15Because it's a performance.
00:02:16Will one comment from Joel see her quit the experiment?
00:02:34It's the break of dawn and a lonely Scot is up early after a fight with Gia.
00:02:41She saw a photo of his ex on his phone.
00:02:45And after Scott refused to delete it, she packed her bags and left the apartment.
00:02:52Gia's pretty much just walked out.
00:02:55I haven't heard from her all night.
00:02:57I obviously thought overnight having those photos is wrong.
00:03:01I did the wrong thing.
00:03:02I really messed up.
00:03:03And there's no excuse.
00:03:05I take full accountability for this.
00:03:06I was just being stubborn.
00:03:07I wasn't thinking in Gia's behalf.
00:03:10I wasn't thinking about putting myself in her shoes, which I normally am good at that.
00:03:14So, I just went through everything I possibly could find of my past, selected, deleted 547 photos, and I got
00:03:20rid of them all.
00:03:23And despite Scott telling Gia he's deleted the photos of his ex, he is still yet to hear from her.
00:03:37As this year's Family and Friends Week approaches the halfway point, more of our original couples will be connecting with
00:03:45their loved ones.
00:03:46I'm excited.
00:03:47I'm ready to mingle.
00:03:53It's time for our couples to get some feedback from the people closest to them.
00:03:58Their family and friends.
00:04:00But I'm going to put the earplugs in when you, uh, met your friends.
00:04:03What's that loud, Steve?
00:04:05Oh, it's an exciting moment.
00:04:07The couples have been living in the bubble of the experiment.
00:04:10So, hearing the perspectives of their loved ones will help solidify their feelings and force them to re-evaluate the
00:04:17future of the relationship when they leave the experiment.
00:04:21Alright, shall we?
00:04:26Today, the first couple to see their loved ones is Stella and Phillip.
00:04:31So, how are you, how are you feeling about...?
00:04:33Excited!
00:04:35It's going to be so much fun.
00:04:37Joining them are Phillip's friends Ryan and Bence.
00:04:41Hey, thanks for making it out.
00:04:44Good to see you.
00:04:44Hi!
00:04:45And Stella's bridesmaid, Layla.
00:04:48Look at you!
00:04:49Look at you!
00:04:52I know, look!
00:04:53Blue, blue, blue!
00:04:54Yes!
00:04:54Layla!
00:04:55You did grill Phillip, didn't you?
00:04:56Can you tell me what happened?
00:04:58I did!
00:04:58I feel so bad.
00:04:59I grilled Phillip so bad at the wedding.
00:05:03During Phillip's vows, Stella's best friend Layla had concerns.
00:05:07I'm a carpenter, but I'm also an online health coach, a YouTuber.
00:05:12And Layla pulled Phillip aside to understand his intentions.
00:05:17The fact that you've come here and made mention of your beautiful online business
00:05:21and how big your presence is online...
00:05:23It's not big.
00:05:24It's just my outlet.
00:05:25Correct.
00:05:26But Stella didn't come here and talk to you about her business.
00:05:29It just adds to my story as how I changed my life.
00:05:31I don't care.
00:05:33I don't care.
00:05:35I'm telling you right.
00:05:35I'm going to stop you just for a second.
00:05:36You're irritated.
00:05:38It's okay.
00:05:39I'm just listening to what you're saying.
00:05:40No, no, no.
00:05:42It's okay, breathe.
00:05:43No, I'm relaxed.
00:05:44I'm breathing.
00:05:44No, you're getting really worked up.
00:05:46I can feel it.
00:05:46I can feel it.
00:05:47I can feel it.
00:05:48You don't have to tell me.
00:05:49I feel your energy.
00:05:50You are agitated.
00:05:52So we haven't seen you guys since the...
00:05:54Since the wedding.
00:05:55Since the wedding.
00:05:56Since the, yeah.
00:05:56Since that day.
00:05:59From conversations that I've had with Stella since the wedding.
00:06:04I don't have too many concerns because from what I hear, they're incredibly happy.
00:06:08They're really getting on.
00:06:10I can't be more excited for them, which is great.
00:06:13Stella.
00:06:14Yes.
00:06:15Um, just in regards to Phil.
00:06:17Yes.
00:06:17How many boxes are you ticking?
00:06:19How many green ticks?
00:06:20Okay.
00:06:20So before coming onto this experiment, I had this note in my phone.
00:06:26Like two, three weeks in, like I literally read the list and I was like, it's ticking a lot.
00:06:32Ooh.
00:06:33Yeah, yeah.
00:06:34She's very, she's a very deep human being.
00:06:36And whenever she talks about anything, I tend to agree a lot.
00:06:39I'm super aligned, like with a lot, with a lot of her core beliefs and stuff like that,
00:06:43about family, where she's going, what she wants from life.
00:06:45I just keep flipping out.
00:06:46I'm like, I say something, she's like, yeah, me too.
00:06:48And then obviously she says something like, yeah, me too.
00:06:50So it's happened like that many times.
00:06:51It's crazy.
00:06:52Yeah.
00:06:53Yeah.
00:06:54We intertwine.
00:06:55Like.
00:06:58Incredible.
00:07:00I love, I love what just happened.
00:07:04They look happy.
00:07:05I'm, I'm really happy.
00:07:08Just, yeah.
00:07:09This is a question for both Stella and Phil.
00:07:12I just want to know if you two have said, I love you, to each other.
00:07:21You can start.
00:07:23Oh!
00:07:26Yeah, yeah, all right.
00:07:27Where is that?
00:07:27Where is that?
00:07:28Yeah, yeah.
00:07:30Mmm.
00:07:30I definitely feel it.
00:07:32And I say that I'm definitely starting to fall for you.
00:07:36Definitely.
00:07:38But we haven't really fully, we're just like.
00:07:41Yeah.
00:07:42You haven't said those words.
00:07:43We're tiptoeing around, but it's, it's definitely there.
00:07:45We've got a really good solid base.
00:07:46Mmm.
00:07:47So, all right.
00:07:47And I definitely feel it.
00:07:48But no, we haven't.
00:07:50I think that we, we both know, right?
00:07:53But it's, it's just someone's, someone's holding out.
00:07:56We're both holding out.
00:07:56But look, it can, it's obvious.
00:07:58There's a lot to love about Stella.
00:08:00But I don't want to just throw that willy-nilly.
00:08:02Oh, I love you.
00:08:03I haven't said it in six years, you know?
00:08:05Uh, and when I say it, I just want to, I just want to meet it.
00:08:08We've both got the power to hurt each other.
00:08:10We understand that it's serious and it's getting there.
00:08:12Who do you think will say it first?
00:08:15I think he has to say it first.
00:08:16Oh, he has to.
00:08:17It doesn't matter.
00:08:18I think he does.
00:08:19Personally.
00:08:19I'm sorry.
00:08:20I don't think there should be men should do this, women should do that.
00:08:22There is Layla.
00:08:23We can have different opinions.
00:08:25Like the way I've been brought up.
00:08:26That's what I learned.
00:08:28I grew up in Lithuania.
00:08:30So our life growing up is way different than people growing up here.
00:08:35Because of that, I am quite traditional person.
00:08:37And I am expecting Philip to say first and confess his feelings.
00:08:42Because a man should take the lead.
00:08:45I will shut my mouth until it's time.
00:08:49Hey, by the way, cheers.
00:08:50Thank you for coming.
00:08:51Thank you for coming.
00:08:52Cheers.
00:08:52Thanks heaps for coming.
00:08:54I appreciate it.
00:08:55We feel appreciated by our closest people and looked out for as well.
00:09:01So it's a great confirmation that Philip and I, we have amazing base for family.
00:09:07And for growth and building a beautiful, solid relationship.
00:09:12Yeah, it's beautiful.
00:09:20Our three newest couples have been spending this week participating in the Crash Course.
00:09:26Which has been designed to fast track their relationships to catch up with the original couples.
00:09:40But for Joel and Juliet, they've had a very difficult moving in period.
00:09:46A video popped up of you that my friend sent me.
00:09:49What video?
00:09:50You playing the drums with dildos.
00:09:53That's kind of pushed me over the edge of whether or not I find Joel attractive.
00:09:59So, do you think we should go to Woolies and get some things for the apartment today?
00:10:03No, you just do your stuff, I'll do my stuff.
00:10:06She's been more moody than pleasant.
00:10:10Something you don't know about me is...
00:10:14What about you?
00:10:15You answer this one.
00:10:16So there's nothing you want to tell me?
00:10:18No.
00:10:19I know like the more I get to know Joel, the more I'll probably get the ick.
00:10:24I think you're quite cruel to me and you don't really, you know, you put me down a lot.
00:10:28And you, um, I don't think you have a lot of respect for me.
00:10:31Feeling battered, I'm feeling bruised.
00:10:32I just, like, I don't know what to do.
00:10:35And today the experts have given them another task to complete.
00:10:40That little candle going?
00:10:42Yeah.
00:10:46I feel like Joel's personality is just aggravating at this point.
00:10:51It's hard to move past him playing the drums with the dildos.
00:10:55It really managed to piss me right off.
00:10:57Joel was so theatrical and performative, definitely find it embarrassing.
00:11:01And I've been fighting the ick all week and it's doing my head in.
00:11:10I'm feeling a bit apprehensive about this task because of Juliet's lack of warmth to me.
00:11:16What's your favourite candle scent?
00:11:20I'm huge on vanilla.
00:11:25I've been trading on eggshells and nothing's working.
00:11:28She hasn't really made any attempts to grow a connection with me.
00:11:32Um, but maybe today will be the turning point.
00:11:37Maybe today will be the turning point.
00:11:39Juliet and Joel, physical intimacy can take time.
00:11:42Sometimes there is power in taking small steps to deepen a connection.
00:11:45This task invites you to build trust and grow physical connection, partaking in small steps through the eyes, the body,
00:11:52and if you're both ready, the lips.
00:11:55Hmm.
00:11:57No.
00:12:00I think it's, like, inappropriate for sure.
00:12:07Yeah, I just haven't seen a lot of effort from you to grow the friendship.
00:12:12Are you serious?
00:12:13Yeah.
00:12:14There's been so much effort.
00:12:16All you've done is push me away since we started this experiment.
00:12:18Mm.
00:12:19Totally.
00:12:21You're pissing me off.
00:12:22Um, literally.
00:12:24I'll leave, actually.
00:12:25I'm gonna go in this room.
00:12:26I'm done with ya.
00:12:33Uh...
00:12:33Juliet?
00:12:39Can we just read the second page together?
00:12:41Maybe it's not that bad.
00:12:42Rita, I can hear you from here.
00:12:43Sorry?
00:12:44I can hear you from here.
00:12:46I think it's better if we talk face to face.
00:12:49Why don't you just come sit down and let's read the second page?
00:12:52Because you aggravate me, doll.
00:12:54There's no need to be aggravated.
00:12:55Yeah.
00:12:56Say that to you before you aggravate someone.
00:12:59Okay, I'm gonna read the task.
00:13:00I'm gonna read it outside your door.
00:13:03So, step one.
00:13:07The eye gaze.
00:13:08No, I'm not doing that.
00:13:10Don't trust ya.
00:13:12Not gonna stand to your devil eyes.
00:13:16That's not very nice, Juliet.
00:13:18I don't feel comfortable looking into your eyes
00:13:20when you've pissed me off so much.
00:13:22I've got very soft eyes, Juliet.
00:13:24Ew, stop it.
00:13:26It felt very undignified, actually,
00:13:28speaking to her through a door.
00:13:29Now, next. What's the next one?
00:13:33Step two, the hug.
00:13:35Absolutely not.
00:13:37You don't get the beverage to touch me right now.
00:13:39So, should we do the eye gaze?
00:13:41No, you don't even get the privilege to look at my eyes.
00:13:44Just don't come near me anymore.
00:13:46You've pissed me off.
00:13:53You don't get the privilege to touch me right now.
00:13:56So, should we do the eye gaze?
00:13:57No, you don't even get the privilege to look at my eyes.
00:14:00Just don't come near me anymore.
00:14:02You've pissed me off.
00:14:06As usual, I respect your boundaries.
00:14:09And, um...
00:14:09Then why do you manage to always upset me, Joel?
00:14:12If you wanna go for a walk or...
00:14:13You purposely say mean things to try upset me.
00:14:16And it's really f***ed up.
00:14:18Okay.
00:14:21I cannot do anything right.
00:14:22I've been so kind to her, so patient.
00:14:26And I think she's shown me the worst of her so far.
00:14:29And I'm done today.
00:14:30I was just trying to get to the bottom.
00:14:31You can try again after you've apologised.
00:14:33Bye.
00:14:35I'm taking everything she's dishing out,
00:14:37but how much more can I take?
00:14:50Our next original couple to meet their family and friends
00:14:54is Rachel and Stephen.
00:14:56Despite their emotional connection going strong,
00:14:59intimacy between them has been slow to build,
00:15:02with difficulties arising in Intimacy Week.
00:15:08I can kiss you, Rachel.
00:15:11I'm not too sure if it's gonna make you feel something.
00:15:14I would need to feel that romantic connection.
00:15:17And, unfortunately,
00:15:18I haven't felt that romantic connection as of yet.
00:15:22And to sit here and say you feel no spark for me.
00:15:25Nothing.
00:15:27What a slap in the face.
00:15:31Despite the couple overcoming that hurdle,
00:15:34the pair are still facing issues with progressing their intimacy.
00:15:38I think today's gonna be really great for Stephen and I.
00:15:41I think what we both need is to see our loved ones
00:15:44and both hear perspective from them.
00:15:48The relationship between Stephen and I is going really well.
00:15:51But we've been here now for a few weeks
00:15:54and I am concerned about the lack of intimacy.
00:15:57The best outcome for today is that Stephen and I walk away from this stronger
00:16:01and, like, feel like we're both moving forward in this.
00:16:08Friends and family, I think, has come at a good time for us as well.
00:16:10I know. It's so great.
00:16:12I miss them.
00:16:13Here to meet Rachel and Stephen are Stephen's mother, Anna, and brother Dylan.
00:16:19I actually haven't spoken to him at all.
00:16:21So, yeah, that's why I'm excited to actually see what's going on.
00:16:24Oh, my God! It's so good to see, Bob!
00:16:27Steve doesn't like getting advice from me too much.
00:16:30He thinks I'm telling him what to do.
00:16:33But, look, I know Stephen.
00:16:35I think sometimes he really needs my advice.
00:16:38Also joining them today are Rachel's friends Bernardo and Keturah.
00:16:44Oh, my God!
00:16:48Let's toast Rach and Stephen and we'll find out all the goss.
00:16:53Yes!
00:16:58What did you first think when you saw Stephen?
00:17:02Honestly, I saw Stephen and I was like,
00:17:04there he is, there's my cute little husband.
00:17:06Look at him, he's so dashing, you know?
00:17:08Honestly, I was just like, there he is!
00:17:10It was amazing.
00:17:11As soon as Stephen, like, grabbed my hands at the altar
00:17:14and he could feel me shaking, there was something calming about it.
00:17:17Like, you know, he had me in that moment.
00:17:19He's like, we're going to get through this together.
00:17:21It's really nice, yeah.
00:17:23I felt that shaking was calming for me, too.
00:17:28I think you calmed Stephen down, actually.
00:17:30You did, she did.
00:17:32And, yeah, I felt like I was very comfortable around Rachel.
00:17:36That's good.
00:17:36Me like that.
00:17:37So, cute.
00:17:39I'm seeing good vibes here, look at this.
00:17:41Holding hands.
00:17:42I'm a toucher, I'm a hold on.
00:17:44I like a hug.
00:17:47Do you think Stephen is affectionate enough?
00:17:55No.
00:17:56No.
00:17:58Yeah, so, um...
00:18:01The answer is no.
00:18:02Um, I'm a very affectionate person, as you can probably see.
00:18:08You should love that, Stephen.
00:18:10Yeah.
00:18:12Somebody, you know, loves you and it's really a picture, you should love that.
00:18:17It's really nice to see Rachel so affectionate.
00:18:20I just don't know if Stephen's there yet to meet her.
00:18:25Let's go have a chat.
00:18:25Oh.
00:18:26Get all the goss.
00:18:27I want to check in on her, see how she's doing.
00:18:31What have you done so far?
00:18:35Like, um, we've literally just, like, kissed a little bit.
00:18:39Like, not like...
00:18:40No, no tongue.
00:18:41And, like, cuddles.
00:18:42And so this is where I'm, like, I'm trying not to push him at any speed.
00:18:46Yeah.
00:18:46I just need to know if he's romantically connected to me or not.
00:18:53I really like her.
00:18:56Yeah.
00:18:57She'd be a fantastic part of the family.
00:18:59That's why I asked the question about the affection thing.
00:19:02Because I feel like when they were sitting there,
00:19:05she's like this on Steve and Steve's just sitting here like this.
00:19:08Yes.
00:19:09Like, seriously.
00:19:10Yeah.
00:19:11Come on, dude.
00:19:13Imagine if you were, like, all over someone
00:19:15and they're, like, just sitting there going like this.
00:19:17Yeah.
00:19:19How would you feel?
00:19:21Yeah.
00:19:22That would suck.
00:19:24My brother's advice was, you know, eye-opener.
00:19:27Well, you're right.
00:19:28Saying you've been a bit closed off and that's not really fair on Rachel.
00:19:33You guys know me better than anyone.
00:19:35I've always seen my brother as a straight shooter.
00:19:38I respect his opinion.
00:19:40It's good advice.
00:19:41She obviously is really into you
00:19:44and I feel like maybe you've got to let your wall down a little bit.
00:19:50Now I realise I'm not getting those feelings because I'm holding back.
00:19:55This is all so new to me.
00:19:57I've been single for a long time and I'm not a perfect guy.
00:20:01It's getting more and more clear.
00:20:03I've got my guard up because it's a bit scary being vulnerable.
00:20:07I felt like I've fallen short.
00:20:10Am I willing to fight for it?
00:20:13Yeah, I am.
00:20:16If I keep going the way I'm going, we're never going to go anywhere.
00:20:19We're stuck at this stagnant part of our relationship.
00:20:22I need to let my guard down.
00:20:24I need to let Rachel in to make this work.
00:20:29Least disposal.
00:20:30Oh, mate, we've got to fill that up.
00:20:31That's right.
00:20:35I want to say a few things.
00:20:39I do like Rachel because me being here now is I'm fighting for the relationship.
00:20:46I wish I was a little bit further ahead and I feel like I've discovered why.
00:20:50I need to bring these walls down.
00:20:52I need to communicate more.
00:20:53I need to be me and I need to express my feelings more.
00:20:56And I feel like Rachel will be more reassured of where I'm at, how I sort of feel.
00:21:01Okay.
00:21:01Hearing him say, I do like Rachel and, like, he's going to let me in.
00:21:05That means a lot to me because, for me, I'm like, okay, so there's something romantic there
00:21:10because you're fighting for a relationship.
00:21:13Very genuine what I'm seeing right here.
00:21:15Yeah.
00:21:16I actually love it.
00:21:17I love you.
00:21:20The most that it costs!
00:21:22I love Rachel's banter.
00:21:27I just love her vibe, her personality.
00:21:30She's lovely.
00:21:31She's bubbly.
00:21:34So, I hope Stephen takes the advice.
00:21:38And I really do hope it works out.
00:21:41I feel like we've got what it takes to make it as a couple.
00:21:45Great!
00:21:46Cheers to that!
00:21:48Cheers!
00:21:53Coming up...
00:21:54Oh, wow!
00:21:57Alyssa and David's friends visit for an update.
00:22:00Cheers, girls!
00:22:02And boys.
00:22:03And bring news of their own.
00:22:05There's a bit of chatter around Adelaide, um, about Bec trying to actually dig shit up on Alyssa.
00:22:13What the hell?
00:22:15It's a little bit of a kick in the guts, to be honest.
00:22:18And...
00:22:20Stephanie and Tyson's cute date...
00:22:22Date day.
00:22:23Mmm.
00:22:24...takes a sour turn.
00:22:25You're here with me and you're talking to your ex.
00:22:28It all just feels...
00:22:31...very...
00:22:31...wrong.
00:22:40As Family and Friends Week continues, our original couples are already feeling the positive impact of having met with their
00:22:48loved ones.
00:22:49You and Dad got along so well, like...
00:22:52It was good, wasn't it?
00:22:53Makes me happy.
00:22:54And for Rachel and Steven, their lunch has brought a renewed confidence and perspective to their relationship.
00:23:00Mum and my brother, they know me best.
00:23:03Mm-hmm.
00:23:04And having the little private chat and he's going,
00:23:06Steve, Rachel's opening up to you and you're dropping the ball.
00:23:12Didn't even realise that.
00:23:14Today was a good day for our relationship.
00:23:16We got some good advice.
00:23:18Dylan's words stuck with me.
00:23:19Just to hear it from him is...
00:23:21Biggering ringing Dylan every week.
00:23:24Like, Dylan.
00:23:26Doven.
00:23:27Doldrum.
00:23:29If I keep going the way I'm going, we're never going to go anywhere.
00:23:31Rachel's trying and I'm holding back.
00:23:34I need to let my guard down and I need to express my feelings.
00:23:39Coming up the other side, feeling lighter.
00:23:42It's good vibes now, yeah.
00:23:51As for Stella and Phillip, today open discussions about the next exciting and major step in their relationship.
00:23:59It's refreshing to get people coming in from outside the bubble and they see it and then they're looking at
00:24:03it in and going,
00:24:04OK, yeah, that makes sense, you know.
00:24:05Yeah.
00:24:05It's important.
00:24:07So who's going to say I love you first then?
00:24:11That's the big question.
00:24:12It's a big question.
00:24:13Apparently...
00:24:13I'm not.
00:24:14I'm not.
00:24:15I am.
00:24:16You don't have to tell...
00:24:17You've already told me without telling me.
00:24:19You told me without telling me.
00:24:20Stella's not adamant.
00:24:21She's not dropping the album first.
00:24:23But then when we're looking at each other and then it's just...
00:24:27It's there.
00:24:30Why are you smiling?
00:24:31Huh?
00:24:31Why are you smiling?
00:24:33I'm just feeding off your energy.
00:24:34I'm feeding off your energy.
00:24:35You've just got that love energy going on around.
00:24:36I think it's going to be said sooner rather than later.
00:24:39It's going to be.
00:24:40Mm-hmm.
00:24:42Mm-hmm.
00:24:43All right.
00:25:00Following the expert's advice and wanting to discover why he was matched with Stephanie.
00:25:07Tyson has been putting in the effort during Crash Course Week.
00:25:10A date.
00:25:11A little date date.
00:25:12Mmm.
00:25:12Yeah, it's nice.
00:25:14John said, I do need to be a little bit more curious in regards to our relationship.
00:25:17I really am taking his advice seriously.
00:25:20I want to get to know you more.
00:25:22Here you go.
00:25:24Beautiful tea for a beautiful girl.
00:25:26With his efforts proving little gestures can go a long way.
00:25:30I think I appreciate you making a cup of tea though.
00:25:31That's very kind.
00:25:32It's the effort though.
00:25:33Yeah, absolutely.
00:25:33Absolutely.
00:25:34Right.
00:25:34And some of the more intimate tasks help them find a place of softness they've been lacking.
00:25:40You know, even just looking into her eyes for like three minutes, I can tell, you know,
00:25:44she's a beautiful person.
00:25:45She's got a beautiful heart.
00:25:46But one thing's for sure, you've got beautiful eyes.
00:25:48And, um, yeah.
00:25:50It was, um, it was good.
00:25:53So we're making progress and it feels so good.
00:25:56Progress is progress, baby.
00:25:57Come on.
00:25:58Let's go.
00:25:59Yay.
00:26:00And today, Tyson's gone one step further and is taking Stephanie on a date to nurture their
00:26:07connection.
00:26:08I'm thinking as well, maybe tomorrow we can hit the gym or might even go out for dinner
00:26:13or something tomorrow.
00:26:14We'll play it by ear.
00:26:15I decided to take Steph on a date today.
00:26:17Um, I'm all for doing nice things for my partner.
00:26:21Even with my ex-wife, every Friday night we go out to dinner.
00:26:24It sort of kept that spark there and it kept that, um, I guess it didn't, we got divorced
00:26:28a year later.
00:26:29But, but I do want to give this 100%.
00:26:32Where would you typically take a girl on a first date?
00:26:35A coffee date or maybe like a beach date, like a walk on the beach.
00:26:40I don't know, it's just something more chill.
00:26:42Yeah, yeah.
00:26:42It is good progress that he, you know, asked me on a date.
00:26:46He arranged it.
00:26:47I'm genuinely impressed.
00:26:50So what's the, like, what's the worst date you've been on?
00:26:54I mean, it's been a long time since I've been on a date.
00:26:56Yeah.
00:26:58I guess I'm just getting to know Steph more.
00:27:00Thank you so much.
00:27:01My lovely husband.
00:27:03Mmm.
00:27:04I think she's pretty satisfied with the size of that snizzle.
00:27:07Unfortunately, like, in this generation of dating, it's hard to connect on the same wavelength.
00:27:12I've been on a lot of dates, and sometimes I reflect on that.
00:27:18I remember, in the past, I dated this Brazilian girl.
00:27:25I remember, she's probably the only one besides my wife, where I actually have those feelings of love for.
00:27:37Oh my shit, you know, if I wasn't so stubborn, where would I be with her now, you know what
00:27:43I mean?
00:27:45It makes you wonder.
00:27:49What the hell is going on?
00:27:51Why bring up his ex-girlfriend now?
00:27:56Do you ever keep in touch with a Brazilian girl?
00:28:02I keep in touch with a Brazilian girl.
00:28:04I won't lie, I do.
00:28:06We, um, still talk quite a lot.
00:28:08Really?
00:28:12She wasn't just, like, a partner.
00:28:14But she's, like, my best friend as well.
00:28:19Have you spoken to her whilst you've been here?
00:28:21I have, yeah.
00:28:24I've got nothing to hide.
00:28:26The fact that he is still in contact with her, it all just feels very wrong.
00:28:35I just find it interesting that you'd be speaking to an old flame whilst you're here.
00:28:41We're friends.
00:28:42Nothing wrong with that.
00:28:45Do you think she still has feelings for you?
00:28:47Potentially.
00:28:49Potentially.
00:28:49And that's what makes it.
00:28:50Well, that's why I find it a little inappropriate.
00:28:53Do you feel like you're even out of love with her?
00:28:56I'll be honest with you, probably not fully.
00:29:07To be honest with you, it just made me question a little bit his commitment to this entire process.
00:29:12If he's speaking with a girl who he once had love for, he thinks he could very easily fall in
00:29:17love with her again.
00:29:19It feels very wrong.
00:29:21And I think every single girl in a relationship in this experiment would feel the exact same if that was
00:29:27coming from their partner.
00:29:27But are you friends with any of your exes or no?
00:29:31Well, I guess you've never been, but you know what I mean?
00:29:33Like anyone that you've seen?
00:29:33I'm friendly with them, but I don't talk to them.
00:29:35You don't talk to them?
00:29:36No.
00:29:36Fuck.
00:29:51So...
00:29:59Why did you bring up the conversation about your ex?
00:30:05I'm not too sure why I brought that up.
00:30:07I don't know why I brought up my ex.
00:30:10Somehow, yeah, that got brought up about the Brazilian girl I was seeing.
00:30:17How do you think Steph felt hearing that you're still talking about your ex?
00:30:23And that you still have feelings with her?
00:30:27Um...
00:30:27Obviously, Steph, yeah, look.
00:30:30I think, yeah.
00:30:33Yeah.
00:30:34I guess when you look at it like that, I guess, yeah.
00:30:37It's probably not the right thing to do, to probably talk to her.
00:30:42Um...
00:30:43I opened up a can of worms there.
00:30:45I can see how it's a very controversial topic, and I can see how it looks, and it doesn't look
00:30:49good, and I 100% admit that.
00:30:52Um...
00:30:54I just wanted to talk to you just regarding the whole exing.
00:30:57I feel like I crossed the line a little bit.
00:30:59The fact of the matter is, I did say, you know, I was talking to my ex, and it came
00:31:03across inappropriate.
00:31:04And it does, it seems like it is inappropriate, but...
00:31:07It is appropriate, Tyson. Like, it's, and it's so disrespectful to me. Like, I'm actually, the more and more I
00:31:12think about it, I'm quite f***ing off, to be honest.
00:31:15I just think it's f***ing true.
00:31:16It's just, the thing is...
00:31:17You're here with me, and you're talking to your ex that you love, like...
00:31:20But the thing is, I don't necessarily, like, love her. It's hard to explain, Steph.
00:31:23If you put the shoe on the other foot, Tyson, how would that make you feel as a man?
00:31:30I, I think I just feel disrespected, the fact that you're talking to her.
00:31:34I feel like you're obviously, like, comparing.
00:31:37It makes me question, if I'm wasting my time, am I good enough? Is he comparing me to her? I'm
00:31:43sure he is. I feel insecure.
00:31:45I'm not comparing at all. Please don't think that. In a way, like...
00:31:48Not comparing at all. Yeah, I just, I don't know.
00:31:50Not comparing at all.
00:31:55I think we just leave the conversation now.
00:32:11Being a single man in Sydney is like being a kid in a candy shop.
00:32:15You just want to try it all.
00:32:20I was on a date with this nice girl.
00:32:22Just like, oh, just, just like show me around. Like, what do you get up to?
00:32:25I'm very much a little bit awkward with these things. So, alright, cool.
00:32:29Here's my, here's one of the trees that I like to climb.
00:32:31Climbed up to the top.
00:32:33And she was like, oh, she's like, I was like, yeah, just, I won't be long.
00:32:35Just enough to, to just take in the views, just relax.
00:32:38And then I looked down, she's gone.
00:32:40So I had to like run off to her, but, um, she didn't really say much.
00:32:44She just sort of was a bit speechless, I guess you could say.
00:32:47Left her speechless.
00:32:50I never heard from her again.
00:32:57As Family and Friends Week continues, there's been an unexpected turn of events.
00:33:04I came back.
00:33:06Gia has made a surprise return to the experiment after she stormed out last night.
00:33:13Hi.
00:33:15It's been an intense 24 hours for the couple, following a grilling at their family and friends lunch.
00:33:23Is Gia a better version of your ex?
00:33:25I don't think you can compare because I would never start an OnlyFans.
00:33:28Like, I felt a little bit attacked.
00:33:30Don't compare me to his ex-girlfriend.
00:33:32And then later that night, Scott refused to delete photos of his ex, resulting in Gia walking out.
00:33:40After a night apart, Scott told Gia he deleted the photos.
00:33:46Explain to me, Gia, when did you first discover these photos of the ex?
00:33:50Yeah, so, we were driving in the car.
00:33:55And there was a song on that I didn't like.
00:33:57And I said, can I change that song?
00:33:59And he's like, well, go on my phone, this is my passcode.
00:34:02I put the passcode in and it literally came up.
00:34:05You're a memory from 2000, blah, blah, blah.
00:34:08And it's literally a photo of her in lingerie.
00:34:11And they're not normal photos.
00:34:13They're not him and her at a beach having lunch.
00:34:16It's her bending over in lingerie next to him on a couch.
00:34:19I don't want to see that.
00:34:21I literally said, I think you should delete these photos.
00:34:25And he just said no.
00:34:27And that was it. No.
00:34:30So, I had to leave because he, by saying no to me and giving me no explanation,
00:34:37was telling me that those photos and that person is more important than what we have.
00:34:44What's important to you in a relationship?
00:34:48That I feel like I get the same energy back in terms of loyalty.
00:34:53I want to feel safe and like I can rely on him.
00:34:57Like I want to feel like he's got my back.
00:35:00I want to feel like if some shit storm comes our way, he's going to back me.
00:35:04And I'm not, I always have to back myself and I'm always that one.
00:35:07And then my wall goes up.
00:35:08So you want someone to play that role and to have your back.
00:35:11Yeah.
00:35:12You've not had that in the past.
00:35:13Never.
00:35:14Ever.
00:35:15No.
00:35:18I felt like what you were saying when you said no,
00:35:22was that these photos were more important than me to you.
00:35:27And I felt like shit, honestly.
00:35:30I felt like, you know, I'm not good enough.
00:35:34You're not that into me.
00:35:36Like how, how is this more important than me?
00:35:39Like that's how I felt.
00:35:40And I just snapped.
00:35:41And when you said no, I was sure you were going to say, yeah, I'll delete the photos.
00:35:44Like I was, I was sure you were going to do it.
00:35:46And when you didn't, I was so shocked.
00:35:49It's like, I felt so less than.
00:35:52And the way that Matthew was comparing me to her and saying like, well, how do you compare to his
00:35:57ex?
00:35:57Like, you think you're better in that?
00:35:58It's like, don't compare women, first of all.
00:36:01That was really inappropriate.
00:36:02But I was coming off the day of that happening and him talking about that and then the photos.
00:36:07And I'm like, this is painting a picture that something is going on with the ex.
00:36:11And I don't, I know there isn't, but it made it look like that.
00:36:15And then when you were like, also like, I'm not going to delete the photos, I'm like, what the hell?
00:36:22I fully get it.
00:36:24And that's why I ended up removing because I had time to digest it all and realize, you know what?
00:36:29That could make someone feel uncomfortable like that.
00:36:32Cause I didn't realize how much it affected you.
00:36:34So I'm like, I, that's why I'd spent ages on there finding everything I could.
00:36:38And then I showed you the deleted album and I'm like, look, there's 547 photos and I raised them.
00:36:42And that was a promise to myself that I would make, cause I want to make sure our relationship stays
00:36:46healthy.
00:36:48You know, at the time of the walking out part, like, yeah, I should have gone in more depth and
00:36:53explaining it all and just accepted and gone, yeah, I will.
00:36:55Cause something like this, yeah, it's a big problem, but it's something that shouldn't break us apart.
00:36:59You know what I mean?
00:37:00Yeah.
00:37:01It was an easy thing to fix.
00:37:03And like I said, I should have, I know I shouldn't have it there now.
00:37:08I definitely appreciate you deleting the photos.
00:37:11It's all right.
00:37:13I didn't think enough on her behalf.
00:37:15And I appreciate that Gia came back to have Gia's forgiveness.
00:37:19There's a lesson I've learned and I'm grateful for it.
00:37:22And we just problem solved it straight away.
00:37:25And we're happy again.
00:37:27It's our biggest, pretty much only fight we've had.
00:37:30Yeah.
00:37:31We're okay.
00:37:32I think he needs to learn to put himself in my shoes and not just be so quick to have
00:37:38a man responsive.
00:37:39Oh my God, she's attacking me.
00:37:40No, really think about what I'm saying.
00:37:43I'm trying to make you see what you're doing is wrong.
00:37:45I held my own and I was not going to tolerate that.
00:37:48And I think he knows that now.
00:38:05Down the hall, things are still tense between Juliet and Joel after she refused to take part in the intimacy
00:38:13task.
00:38:14But after a change of heart, she has reluctantly decided to tackle the photo ranking task.
00:38:24Um, how are you feeling about doing this challenge?
00:38:28Um, yeah, I'm feeling a little apprehensive perhaps?
00:38:35Mm-hmm.
00:38:37Juliet and I have had a really rough couple of days.
00:38:40The previous challenge, Juliet stormed off and I had to read out the task through the door.
00:38:46I suspect this challenge, Juliet is not going to take it well at all.
00:38:53I'll use it as an opportunity to show you what I find attractive.
00:38:59Yeah, which I'm curious about because apparently it's not me.
00:39:04Yeah, I guess so.
00:39:06Should I go in?
00:39:09Let's see how low you rank me.
00:39:12Okay, well, number one, least attractive for me is Tyson.
00:39:16Yep.
00:39:17Just a bit of a dumbass to me.
00:39:19I also think he's definitely misogynistic.
00:39:22Yep, okay.
00:39:23Why would I want to date someone like that?
00:39:25Then, beautiful Stebo.
00:39:27He's just a bit too old for me.
00:39:29Yep.
00:39:29Danny, just like not really my type.
00:39:33I just like wouldn't really go for him.
00:39:37And then I will put you here.
00:39:41Okay, fourth lowest, eh?
00:39:46Mainly about how I feel towards you that it's just not an attractive vibe at the moment.
00:39:54Yeah.
00:39:55You know?
00:39:55Am I your type physically?
00:39:57No.
00:39:57No?
00:39:58No.
00:39:59What is, what is your type?
00:40:00Um, my type is just to like someone more my age.
00:40:08I feel like it's a dig at me even though I'm 31 but I look older.
00:40:14And, yeah.
00:40:16I've got a silver fox look and I think that's what makes me unique and I think that's what makes
00:40:20me attractive.
00:40:22I've dated.
00:40:23I've dated Indians, I've dated British people, Brazilians.
00:40:31What did your ex look like?
00:40:34He had black hair, a beard.
00:40:38What was his background?
00:40:39Maltese.
00:40:40Maltese.
00:40:41Maltese.
00:40:41So Mediterranean.
00:40:43Mediterranean, tick.
00:40:44British, tick.
00:40:46Indian, tick.
00:40:47So she's describing what she's attracted to but when it comes to me, no, apparently none of these criteria matters.
00:40:53Number one, David, physically he's definitely extremely attractive.
00:41:02I think it's a shame that you're not that attracted to me.
00:41:04Mm-hmm.
00:41:06That's the way it is, right?
00:41:08It's a challenge.
00:41:10Yep.
00:41:10No problem.
00:41:11Juliet's been hurting my feelings and telling me that I'm unattractive.
00:41:15So, we'll see where she ranks but she's not first.
00:41:20So, Beck, I can't get past the way she attacks people.
00:41:26Interesting.
00:41:28Now, I'm gonna put Steph.
00:41:32Okay.
00:41:33She's a really nice person.
00:41:35Mm-hmm.
00:41:36She's really sweet.
00:41:37So, next we have the beautiful Juliet.
00:41:40Look at her.
00:41:41Stunning.
00:41:43Third place, not bad.
00:41:46I didn't really think that he would manage to, like, piss me off anymore but, nah.
00:41:52The way he, like, went about how he was doing it was so theatrical and performative.
00:41:57It's like he's trying to antagonize me.
00:42:00Now, as you can see, you were rated higher than what you rated me.
00:42:05And you have a problem with that?
00:42:06No, I'm just, I'm just making an observation.
00:42:08That's all right.
00:42:09You have a massive problem with that.
00:42:10No, no, no.
00:42:10It was just a joke, honestly.
00:42:11It was just a joke.
00:42:12Mm-hmm.
00:42:13Um.
00:42:14I'm just being honest.
00:42:15You didn't do it with your funny, comedic side.
00:42:16Sorry?
00:42:16You didn't do it with your funny, comedic voice.
00:42:19Well, that's okay.
00:42:20But I, I'm just having banter with you.
00:42:24So, next, uh, we have, we have Alyssa.
00:42:32She's got a great nose.
00:42:34She's got great everything, really.
00:42:38So, yeah.
00:42:40Stella, whenever I see her around, she looks really good.
00:42:44She's got a beautiful heart.
00:42:47Well, someone's got to come last and someone's got to get first, you know?
00:42:50Yeah.
00:42:51Definitely.
00:42:51That's the name of the game.
00:42:54I'm really not doing well with him.
00:42:56Like, I want something a bit more real and genuine and honest.
00:42:59And I guess he was just a butthurt where I placed him.
00:43:03Even though, very aware, I'm not attracted to him.
00:43:06I think I was still quite nice with where I ranked him.
00:43:09And then, with his side of it, he was just then trying to rub it in my face where I
00:43:14was.
00:43:14Can't even fail him being in the same room with him right now.
00:43:24Coming up...
00:43:25What about same-sex marriage?
00:43:27The rollercoaster of Stephanie and Tyson continues.
00:43:32Tell me about gay people.
00:43:34Gay people?
00:43:35Do you like gay people?
00:43:37I'm not gay myself, you know, each to their own, but, um...
00:43:40I know that.
00:43:41Yeah, I hope so.
00:43:42And later, Joel's attempt to confront Juliet ends in a showdown.
00:43:47You don't see the star in me.
00:43:48You don't see the light in me.
00:43:50I see the star in you.
00:43:50Yeah.
00:43:51Literally.
00:43:51Because it's a performance!
00:43:53It's a metaphor.
00:43:54Because it's a performance!
00:44:02As the crash course continues for our new couples...
00:44:07What's behind the door?
00:44:09Chris and Sam's bond has deepened after Chris revealed his plans to become a father.
00:44:15Well, they don't waste any time.
00:44:16And now they're about to undertake the rapid revelations task.
00:44:20Designed to help them open up further.
00:44:23Do you want me to go first?
00:44:25Uh, you can go first.
00:44:26The thing I'm most scared about in this experiment is?
00:44:29Uh, not falling in love.
00:44:33Really?
00:44:33Yeah.
00:44:36Okay.
00:44:37Interesting.
00:44:40I'm most insecure when?
00:44:42Um, when I'm...when I don't get reassurance.
00:44:46Yeah.
00:44:46Yeah.
00:44:47The task is great.
00:44:48I love when they give us these tasks because we don't talk like that normally.
00:44:52The last time I had friends with benefits was?
00:44:55I'm going to say a couple...a few years.
00:44:57I don't usually do that.
00:44:59I never have.
00:45:00Yeah.
00:45:00Okay.
00:45:01I liked the, like, no thinking and just, like, firing off answers.
00:45:05Something I'd change about our relationship is?
00:45:09Um, I would like to start being, like, closer to you.
00:45:13Yeah.
00:45:14Yeah, okay.
00:45:15Can I have the same answer?
00:45:17Sure.
00:45:18I'll let you off my arm.
00:45:18Am I allowed to have the same answer?
00:45:20Yeah.
00:45:20We make the rules.
00:45:22Is it you?
00:45:23Yeah.
00:45:23While spirits are high in Chris and Sam's apartment...
00:45:31Across the hall, things are frosty between Stephanie and Tyson,
00:45:36after Tyson regrettably revealed on their lunch date
00:45:39that he has been in touch with an ex during the experiment.
00:45:47Genuinely went there just to try and have a nice dinner, you know,
00:45:50a nice lunch date with you.
00:45:53I was just trying to be as transparent as possible.
00:45:55As you know, like, I'm not trying to hide anything.
00:45:57I'm just trying to be brutally honest.
00:46:00I'm not going to talk to her anymore just out of respect.
00:46:02So if I hurt your feelings, I do apologise.
00:46:09I just feel a bit disrespected, but I appreciate your apology.
00:46:14I do, genuinely.
00:46:15Not just saying that.
00:46:16And it's nice that you've said you're not going to keep talking to her.
00:46:22I obviously feel a bit insecure about that.
00:46:26So I think that's nice that whilst you're here and whilst you're trying to be committed to me
00:46:31that you've said you're not going to keep speaking to her.
00:46:33So I appreciate that.
00:46:40Well, thanks for, uh, thanks for understanding, Steph.
00:46:43I do appreciate it.
00:46:45Um, it, yeah.
00:46:48You know, you are who you are.
00:46:49You say what you think.
00:46:51And I think that's great.
00:46:55But I just want to see you be a bit more in tune with how what comes out of your
00:46:59mouth.
00:47:01Maybe you thinking, actually, you know what, if I say this, how's that going to make someone else feel?
00:47:12Yeah.
00:47:15Look, um, as you know, like, like I've said, I'm a very direct person and sometimes I need to apply.
00:47:21It's okay to be direct.
00:47:22I know, but I'm just saying sometimes I need to maybe apply a filter on certain words I use.
00:47:26I admit that.
00:47:27I'm not perfect.
00:47:30Um, so yeah, I'll take what you said on board as constructive criticism.
00:47:35See if I can take your feelings a little bit more into account with the things I say.
00:47:45I don't think he behaves out of malice.
00:47:48Can we hug it out?
00:47:53Come on, big boy.
00:47:54I think Tyson has listened to what I've said about the repercussions of his actions.
00:47:58And I just want to keep moving forward.
00:48:02I'm not going to throw in the towel.
00:48:03Wow.
00:48:10Our original couples are continuing Family and Friends Week.
00:48:14Oh my gosh.
00:48:17Oh wow.
00:48:17And Alyssa and David are meeting with Alyssa's friend Adriana.
00:48:21And David's friends Jasmine and Melissa, who were all at their wedding.
00:48:26Calm us down.
00:48:28The wedding day, my first impression of Alyssa is that she did come off quite strong to start off with.
00:48:34I'm really, really sorry.
00:48:36What's she saying?
00:48:38I don't think I can marry you.
00:48:40I completely understand.
00:48:43Not until we get on one knee and propose to me first.
00:48:50But David has told us that it's been going really good.
00:48:53Cheers girls.
00:48:55And boys.
00:48:58I think it will be really good to get to know her in more of a casual setting today.
00:49:02Cheers.
00:49:03We're really catching up.
00:49:04I know.
00:49:07So tell us, what's been going on?
00:49:11Where do we start?
00:49:13It's been a lot.
00:49:15Wedding day, obviously, fantastic.
00:49:17It was an amazing wedding.
00:49:19I'm so glad it came in the experiment because here we go, I met her.
00:49:21But yeah.
00:49:24Even though you had to get down on one knee.
00:49:26Yeah, I know, it was worth it.
00:49:27Like, from there, I think, yeah, we just hit it off straight away.
00:49:31Yeah, we did.
00:49:31We have had, obviously, smooth sailing, pretty much.
00:49:35I am so happy to see that they have continued on what we all felt on the wedding day,
00:49:41which is undeniable chemistry, which has then flourished into something so much more and so much more real.
00:49:48So, yeah, it's been pretty wild.
00:49:51And there's a lot of noise as well with the other couples trying to drag us down.
00:49:56We're in the firing line as well.
00:49:59It gets so much.
00:50:00And then we're just like...
00:50:02Why are you guys in the firing line?
00:50:06Well, the experts actually asked that to the main perpetrators or the main perpetrator.
00:50:13This one girl, Beck.
00:50:20There's a mean bitch.
00:50:21There's a couple of mean girls.
00:50:23So, she's obviously...
00:50:24Things aren't going well in her relationship.
00:50:26Yeah.
00:50:29I'm a little bit anxious because I've got some information to share with the both of them.
00:50:35There's been a lot of chat back in Adelaide about a girl named Beck.
00:50:39And I think that they need to be aware of what's been happening back home.
00:50:45So, I just want to let you know as well, there's a bit of chatter around Adelaide about Beck trying
00:50:55to actually dig shit up on Alyssa.
00:51:00Like, it's an active process.
00:51:02Wow.
00:51:06Why?
00:51:08What the hell?
00:51:10I'm pissed you're going to read on my face, like...
00:51:14Yeah, it's a little bit of a kick in the guts, to be honest.
00:51:17I'm not sure what her agenda is or why she has it out for Alyssa so bad.
00:51:25But, yeah, that you guys actively have people out for you.
00:51:30And I think it's just...
00:51:32I think it's disgusting.
00:51:33To hear that Beck is actively trying to tear me down back home.
00:51:38This is actually disgusting.
00:51:48It's Alyssa and David's family and friends meet.
00:51:51And Alyssa's friend Adriana has pulled her aside for a private chat about the alleged actions of a fellow bride.
00:51:59Go on, give me the low down.
00:52:01So, in Adelaide, there's been a lot of chats from mutual friends about Beck.
00:52:09And about her trying to dig up dirt on you and your ex-partner, which is all non-relevant to
00:52:18you.
00:52:18Have you heard what's been said?
00:52:21No.
00:52:23But I know that we do have mutual friends back in Adelaide.
00:52:26Yeah.
00:52:28Look, all I know is that she's bringing a lot of opinions and a lot of, uh...
00:52:33It's not cute.
00:52:34Yeah, it's not a good look.
00:52:35I wouldn't expect anything less from Beck because she's proven over and over again she can't be trusted.
00:52:42Um, and she's throwing herself under the bus, ultimately.
00:52:44Her behaviour has been pretty absurd to me.
00:52:47And it's...it's not just her.
00:52:49What's been going on with these girls?
00:52:51Because I'm, like, super mad.
00:52:53A lot of mean girl behaviour.
00:52:54I mean, these wives are pretty confronting, actually.
00:52:59It is not appropriate to rip down other females and make them feel less than.
00:53:05Do you know what the funniest thing was? Like, Beck has been remorseful and she's apologised for her behaviour.
00:53:11And then goes and still talks behind my back.
00:53:15What a dickhead.
00:53:17Although I don't know Beck personally, I'm not impressed.
00:53:20Alyssa is my best friend.
00:53:21Don't want to see her get hurt.
00:53:22And definitely don't want any girls talking shit about her.
00:53:26Obviously, Beck, she's just bored.
00:53:28When you're focused on your life and what you're doing, then you're not hating on other people.
00:53:32You're focused and you're in your lane.
00:53:33So, I feel sorry for her.
00:53:36What's their problem?
00:53:37Babe, do you know what? I think it's just jealousy.
00:53:39We have a lovely relationship, David and I.
00:53:42And they're obviously, they've got so much time on their hands that they want to interrogate every other relationship but
00:53:47focus on their own.
00:53:48They're not watering their own garden.
00:53:50And basically, they're miserable.
00:53:52I just wanted to check in to make sure none of it was a concern to you.
00:53:55Look, I haven't really, babe, I've been so busy and caught up in the experiment.
00:53:59But, babe, you know in the real world, they're not my people.
00:54:01They're not your people.
00:54:02They're not my people.
00:54:03Moving forward in this experiment, I'm already keeping Beck at arm's length because I don't trust her.
00:54:09It's just reaffirmed that I cannot keep this girl close to me.
00:54:13She has to stay away.
00:54:16Hello.
00:54:16How are you guys?
00:54:20Aw, does that mean we have to say goodbye?
00:54:22I don't want to.
00:54:25David and I seeing our friends today has really reassured us and our relationship.
00:54:29Our feelings are valid.
00:54:31It's a crazy experiment and, yeah, it's so comforting knowing that our friends have our backs as well.
00:54:39That was fun.
00:54:40That was actually fun.
00:54:50For Stephanie and Tyson, the crash course to accelerate their relationship continues.
00:54:56We've got Mel here, Steph.
00:54:58And their next challenge, the audition's video task, has just arrived.
00:55:02iPads.
00:55:03I love it.
00:55:04After their last date was derailed by an admission that Tyson was still in contact with his ex, this task
00:55:11may be the perfect opportunity to get their relationship back on track.
00:55:16This year, in your crash course, you'll be watching your partner's audition video.
00:55:20You may hear things you've never heard before.
00:55:22You may like what you see or you may not.
00:55:25I'm excited for this task.
00:55:28We've had a very rocky lunch date, but the fact that he apologised and he took accountability really meant a
00:55:35lot to me.
00:55:36There's lots of things that we're compatible on.
00:55:39And moving forward, I want to see where it goes.
00:55:41Watch closely, listen carefully, and then be ready to come back together in debrief.
00:55:47So, I'm hoping I might see a bit more of a sensitive side to him.
00:55:51Maybe?
00:55:53Is there anything in yours that you might be worried about?
00:55:57I've said a lot.
00:55:58I think I know about your red flags already, and I'm still here.
00:56:02I'm not worried about anything.
00:56:04I'm very confident with my audition tape.
00:56:06I think Steph will like what she sees.
00:56:09Should I stay here and you toddle off to your room?
00:56:13Toddle off?
00:56:14Toddle off.
00:56:15How about you toddle off?
00:56:16I feel like I've already, you know, I'm getting to know Steph even more.
00:56:21And I'm pretty sure I know what the video is going to say.
00:56:26I think it's going to say something along the lines.
00:56:28She's after someone that takes care of their fitness, someone that's like-minded.
00:56:33Yeah, it's a pretty simple task.
00:56:36Let's see what we're dealing with here.
00:56:40I am Stephanie.
00:56:41I'm 32.
00:56:42I come from Queensland and I'm a real estate agent.
00:56:45I like to think of myself as like the simple, non-fancy girl next door.
00:56:50I think I'd make a cool mum.
00:56:52I know it's not the same, but I'm very loving with my dog.
00:56:56She's my first priority.
00:56:57And I just think, I think overall, I just have so much love to give.
00:57:02I love to have intelligent conversations.
00:57:05Um, and I mean I am a huge Trump fan.
00:57:10Yeah.
00:57:11The traditional relationships that you're referring to, like, woman stays at home, man goes out and works.
00:57:17Look, I'm not against it.
00:57:19I think it is, it's what works for the couple, right?
00:57:22Hmm.
00:57:23I like it, quite frankly.
00:57:25I like what she had to say.
00:57:27Steph and I do connect on a lot of levels.
00:57:29We have similar political views.
00:57:32I actually really like that video.
00:57:34It's made me like Steph a lot more.
00:57:35And while Tyson reflects on his compatibility with his wife, in the lounge room, Stephanie is learning more about Tyson.
00:57:43I've got no issues with actually picking up women.
00:57:45That's not an issue.
00:57:46I can't seem to find a good quality woman that has all the traits I want.
00:57:49I'd probably say maybe 60% to 70% of the women, you know, I've had things with were sort
00:57:56of anti-Trump.
00:57:58Like I said, I'd wear the hat right now, if I quit the Make America Great Again hat.
00:58:02A lot of people say, oh, he said this, he's racist.
00:58:05But he's not, though.
00:58:06If they actually look at his policies, he's doing a good job.
00:58:08I agree with that.
00:58:10What about same-sex marriage?
00:58:12Same-sex marriage?
00:58:14Well, in my opinion, if they love each other, then let them get married.
00:58:17What bothers me is they're trying to push on to me.
00:58:19Or even gay guys coming up to me.
00:58:21I don't like that, you know?
00:58:22I'm not gay.
00:58:25Of course!
00:58:26Why does he think a gay guy would come up to him?
00:58:28I struggle with the gay thing.
00:58:30Like, he's pretty much just said, if you're gay, don't do it in front of me, do it behind closed
00:58:35doors.
00:58:37You know, and we've got, I had two, I had gay guys at my wedding.
00:58:41They're like my closest friends, my nearest and dearest.
00:58:43We've got gay guys in the experiment.
00:58:45Like, they're such amazing people.
00:58:47Why did they not get the same opportunity to share their love?
00:58:51See, he was so outdated, Nick.
00:58:54You know, I'm happy for you. Be whoever you want.
00:58:56Don't come on to me.
00:58:57Like, why the f*** would they be coming on to you, Tyson?
00:59:01You're not God's gift.
00:59:09I have to reproduce.
00:59:11You know, that's our sole purpose in life, is to have children.
00:59:17If you look at, like, you know, animals around the world, that is literally what they're designed to do, and
00:59:22I feel like we're the exact same.
00:59:25I've always jokingly said to my family that, like, if I get to the age of 35, or whatever number
00:59:30that is, if I haven't got a wife or a stable family, that I think, like, I would like to
00:59:35explore the option of a surrogate.
00:59:36And then just be a single dad, have them my own kids.
00:59:40Why would you not? Like, kids are the best.
00:59:42To say the clock is ticking, like, I'm 31 this year, so I'm over the hill.
00:59:48Maybe once I hit 35, that'll change, but we'll see.
00:59:52Stephanie and Tyson have come to the end of their audition videos.
00:59:58What's going on?
01:00:03How did you go?
01:00:05Um, I think we went quite well.
01:00:08Like, I looked at that and I said, well, Steph, you know, she's got substance.
01:00:13It was nice to know, essentially, that we, um, we can both agree on something.
01:00:18Yeah.
01:00:18I, I mean, I wasn't, like, particularly shocked with anything in your video.
01:00:22The thing that I just, like, I don't know, I just, like...
01:00:27Tell me about gay people.
01:00:30Gay people?
01:00:31Do you like gay people?
01:00:33I like gay people.
01:00:34I'm not gay myself, you know, each to their own, but, um...
01:00:36I know that.
01:00:38Obviously.
01:00:38I hope so.
01:00:41Steph, sometimes I wonder if she wants to create a little bit of drama.
01:00:45Because I've already told her about the whole gay thing, about how if you're born gay, you're gay, and, um,
01:00:51you know, credit to you.
01:00:51If that's what you like, then that's on you.
01:00:53Like, in the video, how you worded it was, again, like, talking down to them like they're inferior.
01:01:00Like, a comment that you made was, like, just, don't do it in front of me.
01:01:04You don't like it when gay people come up to me, come up to you, like...
01:01:09And hit on me.
01:01:10And hit on you.
01:01:10Yeah.
01:01:11I don't believe that any gay person would be coming up to you and hitting on you.
01:01:13Gay people don't do that.
01:01:15What the hell does that mean?
01:01:17So, are you saying I'm ugly or something?
01:01:19Because they do.
01:01:20Did those words just come out of my mouth?
01:01:21Well, I'm just saying, I have had gay people come up to me.
01:01:25But you also did say, I'm happy for them to be whoever they want to be, they deserve to be
01:01:30happy, blah, blah, blah, but keep it behind closed doors.
01:01:34With Steph, I just feel like, sometimes she kind of does twist the words, and I notice she, just from
01:01:40what I've seen,
01:01:40I could be wrong, but it just feels like she wants to start a bit of drama.
01:01:44Like, she didn't have to bring up the gay thing.
01:01:46Hits hard because I've just been supporting one of my best friends in her wedding, and she's gay.
01:01:51We had gay guys at our wedding.
01:01:54We've got Chris and Sam in the experiment.
01:01:56I have very close gay friends, lesbians and gay men, and I would hope that we're all just humans, having
01:02:04our own experience in this world, and I'm just here for harmony.
01:02:07I just want everyone to have their own harmonious experience.
01:02:10Like, love is love.
01:02:12Why should they not be allowed to, like, show their affection in public?
01:02:18I'm not anti-gay, okay?
01:02:21I like gay people, and I think that actually, a lot of gay people are very friendly, very nice.
01:02:28For me, it was just, I'm not calling you anti-gay.
01:02:30I've never thought you were anti-gay.
01:02:32Those words did not come out of my mouth about you.
01:02:34I didn't even give that a second thought, really.
01:02:36It was just about, again, kind of your words and the way that you word things can sometimes come across
01:02:43really insensitive to other people.
01:02:46Yeah, yeah.
01:02:50It's been an intense crash course for our three new couples, and the mood is tense between Juliet and Joel.
01:03:03I'm feeling pretty hopeless at the moment.
01:03:05Pretty hopeless.
01:03:06The way Juliet has been reacting to me, it's like as if I've been mistreating her.
01:03:11I've been the opposite to her.
01:03:13I've treated her with kindness and respect and patience, and all she does is spit in my face.
01:03:18I'm trying to avoid drama by being the perfect little angel she needs me to be, but I can't do
01:03:27anything right. Nothing.
01:03:31So, I think we should have a chat.
01:03:34Are you able to put your bowl down?
01:03:38I don't think you accept me for who I am, and I don't think you treat me very well.
01:03:45Okay, continue.
01:03:46You don't value me.
01:03:47Yeah.
01:03:48You devalue me.
01:03:49Okay.
01:03:50You don't say nice things about me.
01:03:52Yes, I've lost myself the past few days.
01:03:54I've felt very quiet, very sad, haven't been able to stop my emotions from getting the best of me.
01:03:59It's because I have been feeling genuinely smothered from the extremeness.
01:04:05Your personality.
01:04:06I'm getting an extremely theatrical, performative side.
01:04:10Yeah.
01:04:11That makes me very recluse.
01:04:13So, basically, I'm to blame for everything, right?
01:04:16Did I even say that I'm blaming you for anything?
01:04:19That's what it sounds like.
01:04:21Do you make me think that the problem lies with you?
01:04:23Why?
01:04:24What am I?
01:04:24What problem am I doing?
01:04:26All you do is ridicule me.
01:04:27You say that I'm theatrical, I'm this, I'm that.
01:04:29How about just...
01:04:30You are, extremely.
01:04:30That is my personality.
01:04:32Okay.
01:04:32So, you either like it or you don't.
01:04:34It's smothering.
01:04:35It is smothering.
01:04:36Yeah.
01:04:37So, me being myself is smothering you.
01:04:40That isn't your true self.
01:04:42I don't know why you're trying to hide it.
01:04:44How do you know who I am?
01:04:44Because I've seen this.
01:04:45You think you know me after a week?
01:04:47We've hardly been in the same room together.
01:04:50She's not once tried to get to know me.
01:04:53She hardly wants to talk to me.
01:04:55I want to re-evaluate why I came here.
01:05:01Why did you come here?
01:05:02For love and for something real.
01:05:04Yeah.
01:05:04Mm-hmm.
01:05:05I'm not getting either of that from you.
01:05:07Yeah.
01:05:07And I want to find...
01:05:09You're getting all of that from me.
01:05:10I'm getting a performance.
01:05:11No, you're not.
01:05:11I'm getting a performance.
01:05:12Okay.
01:05:13You don't understand me.
01:05:14I'm gonna give you...
01:05:14You don't see the star in me.
01:05:16You don't see the light in me.
01:05:17See the star in you.
01:05:18Yeah, literally.
01:05:19Because it's a performance.
01:05:20It's a metaphor.
01:05:21Because it's a performance.
01:05:29It's a metaphor...
01:05:30going to reach right to me. Why did
01:05:30you come here? For love
01:05:31and for something real. Uh-huh.
01:05:34Remind me.
01:05:34Okay, goodassemble.
01:05:34I'm not getting both
01:05:36of that from you. Yeah. Yeah. I'm
01:05:37getting both
01:05:39of that
01:05:39from me. Why did you come here?
01:05:42For love and for something real.
01:05:45Yeah. Yeah.
01:05:51He was like, well, I'm the star because deep down he thinks he's the star in this
01:05:58What I mean by that is you don't see the true essence in me
01:06:01My big personality has always been a feature of me
01:06:05I think you're an impossible woman to please my core identity has never changed
01:06:09I've always been this big personality and that's what people love about me
01:06:12Except Juliette, I don't think anything makes you happy
01:06:15I'm done! I'm done right now, I'm done! I'm done, okay? I'm done!
01:06:22This is so stupid
01:06:25This is a f***ing joke, babe
01:06:27I want to f***ing leave
01:06:36Yeah, I'm very disappointed, yeah
01:06:40This is not how I envisaged my first marriage to go
01:06:43Joel, I did not want to end like this
01:06:46I wanted us to just find some space
01:06:49And I wanted you to realise that whatever you've been doing isn't really connecting
01:06:57I'm disappointed to be mistreated like I'm some sort of demon when I've been treating her so well
01:07:02I'm crashing out because you're not real with me
01:07:05No, I'm actually the most real person you'll ever meet in your life
01:07:07It was psychotic
01:07:10I haven't come this far to be with a woman who doesn't value me
01:07:15Yeah
01:07:24Tomorrow night
01:07:25I'm going to be a dad
01:07:28Chris' major update
01:07:30Cheers guys!
01:07:31Cheers!
01:07:33Will leave some at the table confused
01:07:36I'm not really used to that whole gay thing with the kids
01:07:42I don't know what the hell's going on quite frankly
01:07:45I came in here and I dropped bombs on everyone
01:07:48Beck embarks on her apology tour
01:07:50I am genuinely sorry
01:07:52But David remains sceptical
01:07:54Beck's apology means jack shit
01:07:56Back in Adelaide you were digging up some stuff about Alyssa
01:07:59You're not digging up information
01:08:01It doesn't mean he's a human
01:08:04I've been talking like you do a Mac and us there
01:08:07And while some couples celebrate their love so together
01:08:11So insane
01:08:12You'd think they'd been together for 10 years
01:08:14You've created a deranged girl
01:08:16She was very disgusted by us
01:08:18I'm not married to a man
01:08:21One marriage implodes
01:08:23He said
01:08:24I'm the star
01:08:26I didn't say it
01:08:27Again, done talking to this
